Swim earlier (and later) with a propane pool heater

April 27, 2019 is probably not a date you’ve marked on your calendar yet, but if you love swimming in your pool at home, you just might want to.

In case you’re not up on your National Celebration Days, that’s National Pool Opening Day – a day of celebration if there ever was one for those of us recovering from a long, drawn-out winter and early spring.

The problem for those of us living in the Hudson Valley is that April and May mornings and evenings can still be downright chilly: in fact, average temperatures in our service area can dip into the 50s well into June – not exactly great weather for a dip. For many of us, that means putting off any serious swimming until summer – which isn’t any fun, considering we will probably have to close our pool in September.

But what if you could extend your pool time by several weeks on both sides of the swimming season? You can if you have a propane pool heater.

Enjoy a warm dip on a cool morning – and more

Propane pool heaters are great for In-ground and aboveground pools and spas because they are:

• Easy to install and maintain
• Ultra efficient
• Extremely durable and reliable
• Eco-friendly
• Available in a number of sizes and colors

They also enjoy significant advantages over other pool heater types, including:

• Electric heat pumps – A swimming pool heat pump can only produce water that’s slightly warmer than the temperature of the air. That works if you live in Florida, but here in the Hudson Valley Not so much, especially early or late in the season, or in the morning or evening hours.
• Solar pool heaters – Solar swimming pool heaters are great – on clear, sunny days during the daytime. The question is, is that the only time you like to swim?
• Natural gas – With propane pool heater, you will get the same performance as a natural gas pool heater without the complications of connecting to a natural gas line.
